No society has ever prospered and flourished without value based education. Good educational system guides the destiny of a nation towards prosperity; whereas flawed educational system pushes it towards misfortune. The education system should focus at excellence and have an innate strength to inculcate high ethical and moral values in the pupils. There are two main features of education. One simply deals with the know-how of the subject, while the other concerns with the exposition of the inner talent. The first relates to the matter and the second belongs to the unrevealed celestial power within the human beings. The real task of education out the hidden energy of the human beings for the prosperity of the society. Swami Dayanand Saraswati writes on education that ‘the main aim of education is to create humans awareness so that they can understand the difference between the truth and untruth’. Education is for the life not for living. In the words of Francis W. Parker, “The end and aim of all education is the development of character’. Dr. Shayamaprasad Mookerjee rightly said “Wealth, arms, munitions, disciplined armies and navies are splendid services, but character of people, the character into which the youth is growing, determines the life or death of the nation”.

Let the parents, teachers and captains of the various walks of the society become a role model for our younger generations by following Vedic Culture.
